yesterday, i went to nevada to the largest solar plant of anywhere in the country. hundreds of workers built it. is powering thousands of homes, and they are expanding to tens of thousands more as they put more capacity on line. after 30 years of not doing anything, we finally increased fuel efficiency standards on cars and trucks. and americans are now designing and building cars that will go twice as far on the same gallon of gas as they did in the past decade. that will save the average family thousand dollars over the life of a car. and it will save companies a lot of money because they are hurt by rising fuel costs as well. all of these steps have helped put america on the path to greater energy independence. since i took off, our dependence on foreign oil has gone down every year. last year, we imported 1 million fewer barrels per day than the year before. think about that. in america, at a time that we are growing, we are importing less oil from overseas because we are using it smarter and more efficiently. america is now importing less than half the oil we u

if we win either nevada or massachusetts, two states held by republicans, we could win one of those, that is six. the republicans probably have to pick up at least six seats. i do not think they can do that. i think there are a lot of closely contested senate races. some of those will break democratic. some of those will break republican. there are a couple of wild cards. democrats have a shot of maintaining control of the senate by one vote. >> let me make this observation. elections have become very parliamentary. although the last time the republicans over performed and they won a handful of senators, illinois, pennsylvania, wisconsin, that is the exception to the rule. u.s. in very few blue senators in red states and red senators in ballistics. we have 23 democrats -- in blue states. we have 23 democrats up for reelection. 11 open senate seat. it could go either way. i think sometimes there is an exuberance to think we are going to take it. nothing is automatic. we have some democrats that one in 2006. it was a huge democratic year. they have to protect themselves. they are tough

instead of working with congress, remove barriers to job creations, the president is at the university of nevada, las vegas, at a rally talking about student loan rates. he should be here working with us to ensure that they won't double. instead of our good faith effort being responded to, all we've heard from the white house is silence. but that's a story of the obama administration. in over two years, the democrats here in congress gave the president everything he wanted. a stimulus spending binge, health takeover and more. and now we're here working to clean up the mess, the president and senate democrats are more interested in gimmicks than they are in real solutions. you know, there's no better example than the 30 past house passed bills that would help create jobs. our plan for american job creators, most of these bills are all sitting over in the united states senate and these bills would expend energy production, eliminate excessive regulations and stop the washington spending binge. they will help create jobs for college graduates who feed these jobs to pay student loans and address the

this is not colorado or nevada or mexico. nonetheless, hispanics in virginia, as in many of the other states, to be very heavily democratic. and so, to the extent they turn out, even if they are only 4% of the statewide votes in any given year, they can assist democrats. let me mention asian americans, because they have become increasingly important in virginia, even though they are a small percentage of the population and the registered population. in northern virginia in particular, they have become exceptionally active. they give a lot of money to candidates. they are predominantly democratic, although slices of the asian-american population, such as vietnamese americans, will support republicans. it goes to show that in a diverse population, virginia has become tremendously diverse. when i was growing up, the white turnout on election day was about 85% of the total. as i mentioned, it's low 70's today. that makes a giant difference. you can tell it in the election results. even a small slice of the population can have a b
